Hearing that the daughter was going to sue her own mother, Old Mrs. Ruan took off her shoes and was about to hit Lu Siqiao.
Lu Mingfeng snatched the shoes away and said harshly, "Mother, Qiaowa is right. Huang Ling was wrong back then. The child was almost beaten to death. It wasn't just physical harm, but also a memory that can never be erased. What's wrong with the child being afraid of her? If the second wife wants the child back, let her make a scene. We can always take it to court!"
"I see that my sister-in-law is good at talking and scolding, so she must be fine. We'll be going now."
Lu Mingfeng didn't linger for a moment and hurriedly left with Lu Siqiao.
"You brat, you just wait, I'll get my hands on you later! I refuse to believe I can't handle you. Ouch, my stomach..."
"Ah Ling, you, you're bleeding!"
"..."
The sounds of Huang Ling's insults, along with the echoes of Old Lady Ruan and her son, filled my ears.
Lu Siqiao kept telling herself that she was better off without such parents, but her heart was still wounded.
The unhappiness of one's family of origin can take a lifetime to heal.
Lu Siqiao's eyes were red, like a little rabbit's.
"Qiaowa, don't be afraid. Your parents will always be by your side. If Huang Ling wants to take you back, we can just break off all ties and never see each other again." Lu Mingfeng squatted down in front of her, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said earnestly, "Everyone's growth experience may be difficult. When you grow up and look back, you will find that everything will pass, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome."
Tears welled up in Lu Siqiao's eyes and streamed down her face.
"Dad, if only I had met you in my past life, I wouldn't be afraid." She threw herself into his arms, crying quite hard.
Lu Mingfeng thought she was afraid of what Huang Ling said, and felt even more sorry for her.
"Don't be afraid, Qiaowa, your parents will definitely protect you." He patted her head.
The conversation between the father and daughter reached someone's ears.
"Uncle Lu, Qiaowa, what a coincidence." Cheng Ze had appeared at the hospital entrance sometime earlier, looking at Lu Siqiao with concern. "Qiaowa, who bullied you?"
Lu Mingfeng stood up awkwardly, not knowing where to begin.
Lu Siqiao, however, grasped Cheng Ze's hand as if it were a lifeline and eagerly inquired about her biological parents' desire to take her back.
In order to adopt her as his goddaughter, Cai Ming specially investigated Lu Siqiao's background. He was surprised to find that the girl had been abused by her biological parents since childhood, and it was a miracle that she had grown up. She was finally adopted by her uncle and aunt, but unexpectedly, the second branch of the family changed their minds.
A hint of gloom flashed across Cheng Ze's beautiful dark eyes.
"Don't be afraid. Uncle Lu has already completed the adoption procedures. He is your legal guardian. If the second branch wants you back, it will require negotiations between the two families, and they may even need your consent." He patted Lu Siqiao's little head, his eyes full of pity.
Lu Siqiao's eyes were bright, with a moist mist in them.
Her nose was also red.
Cheng Ze couldn't help but think of the little rabbit he used to raise.
"If the second wife's family tries to rob us outright, we'll take them to court."
Then, his gaze darkened, he slowly stood up, and his demeanor changed drastically. "I will hire the best lawyers for you, and I will never let them succeed."
Lu Mingfeng was surprised that he was so protective of Lu Siqiao, so he nodded and said politely, "Thank you, Cheng."
"I see you haven't had breakfast yet. Get in the car first, and I'll have the driver take you home after you've eaten." Cheng Ze pulled Lu Siqiao to the car and drove them away.
This scene was witnessed by Shao Lihua.
She was just out getting breakfast when she overheard an astonishing secret.
The eldest son's family seems to have found a powerful backer.
Thinking that Huang Ling was obsessed with getting Lu Siqiao back, she quickly went back to the ward and told the people in the second branch of the family about the scene.
With his hands behind his back, Third Master Lu glanced at Huang Ling and said, "Qiaowa knows a lot of important people. Now that she's better, she might remember our past friendship and help Siling and the others out. Why are you holding onto her like this?"
"Which parent doesn't want their children to be successful? Unlike you, who only thinks about harming your daughter!" In a fit of anger, Third Master Lu stormed out of the ward.
Huang Ling was still unable to calm her anger.
She has gone mad.
"These days, hiring a lawyer must be expensive, right?" Old Master Ruan said tremblingly.
Huang Ling's miscarriage has already cost nearly a thousand yuan, and the whole family has emptied their savings to cover the debt. Now they have to go to court, all for that money-losing child. Naturally, Old Mrs. Ruan is not happy about it.
Lu Mingyuan also started to back down: "They're our own children anyway, it doesn't matter who raises them. I'd love for someone to help me raise them. Ah Ling, stop making a fuss."
Seeing that neither her mother-in-law nor her husband would help her, Huang Ling cursed wildly, "Anyone will do, just not the eldest son's wife. If they like other people's daughters so much, then I'll give Er Ya to them!"
"Ah Ling, are you crazy!" Seeing that she was going too far, Lu Mingyuan stepped forward and held her down. "Why do you have to pick on Qiao Wa? Whether she's doing well or not doesn't affect you!"
"My son was cursed to death by her!"
"It was her! She stole your son's good fortune. Otherwise, why did my son die when Luo Xiaoxue got pregnant?" Huang Ling said, heartbroken.
Lu Mingyuan said angrily, "If you hadn't been so reckless as to chase after the thief, things wouldn't have turned out like this!"
He was heartbroken too. He could have another son, but Huang Ling had even had her uterus removed, so he was destined to be a father-in-law.
"You better rest and don't get any funny ideas, or I won't bother with you anymore!" he said, slamming the door behind him as he left.
Seeing his strong reaction, Huang Ling's pupils contracted sharply, and she muttered to herself, "See? Even my husband dislikes me now. My life is so miserable!"
Old Mrs. Ruan kicked Shao Lihua out.
"Mother, has Second Sister-in-law gone mad?" Shao Lihua whispered.
Old Mrs. Ruan shook her head: "The second son is gone, your second brother will have no descendants!"
Shao Lihua hurriedly said, "Mother, there's also my Zhenxing."
Little did Huang Ling know that she overheard these words and felt even more hatred for Lu Siqiao.
Instead of reflecting on her own problems, she blamed all the blame on Lu Siqiao.
Lu Siqiao is the source of misfortune, possessed by a demon.
She planned to go back to the village after she recovered from her illness.
No matter what, she was determined to get her daughter back.
"What? Has Huang Ling gone mad?!"
Upon returning to the village, Luo Xiaoxue was so angry when she heard that Huang Ling was determined to get Lu Siqiao back that she almost had a miscarriage. She shouted, "In short, I will not give Qiaowa back to her, don't even think about it!"
Lu Siqiao quickly stopped him, saying, "Mom, I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay with you and help you take care of the baby after you give birth to your little brother."
Luo Xiaoxue laughed: "We don't even know if it's a younger brother or sister yet, and you're already thinking so far ahead."
Lu Siqiao stuck out her tongue and said, "As long as they are born to Mom, whether it's a younger brother or a younger sister, I will love them all."
I thought Huang Ling's miscarriage would be a relief for a while, but a month later, she took her second daughter back to the village to study.
"Sister-in-law, do you know? My son was reincarnated into your belly."
He told me he wanted to rely on his sister.
That day, she found Luo Xiaoxue, stared intently at her stomach, and gave a sinister smile.
